Air from Outside
If air from outside is brought in for combustion and
ventilation, the confined space shall be provided with two
permanent openings. One opening shall be within 12” (305
mm) of the top of the enclosure and one within 12” (305 mm)
of the bottom. These openings must communicate directly
or by ducts with the outdoors or spaces (crawl or attic) that
freely communicate with the outdoors or indirectly through
vertical ducts. Each opening shall have a minimum free area
of 1 square inch per 4,000 Btu (645 mm² per 1.17kW) per
hour of total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure
(See Figures 5 and 8). It is also permissible to bring in air
for combustion from a ventilated attic (Figure 6) or ventilated
crawl space (Figure 7).
When communicating with the outdoors through horizontal
ducts, each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1
square inch (645 mm²) per 2,000 Btu (.56 kW) per hour of
the total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure. See
Figure 9.
When ducts are used, they shall be of the same cross-
sectional area as the free area of the openings to which they
connect. The minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts
shall be no less than 3 inches (75 mm). In calculating free
area, the blocking effect of louvers, grilles, or screens must
be considered. If the design and free area of protective
covering is not known for calculating the size opening
required, it may be assumed that wood louvers will have 20
to 25 percent free area and metal louvers and grilles will
have 60 to 75 percent free area. Louvers and grilles must be
fixed in the open position or interlocked with the equipment
so that they are opened automatically during equipment
operation.
